Veg oil/fuel filter confirmation
#19
^^ that’s the one!

Personally I found 1 euro piece to be a perfect fit. These housings have a lot of rubber seals and they are notorious for letting in air at the best of times, and this is exacerbated by the use of vegetable oil. It pays to take your time and make sure everything is sealed up properly. I use Loctite silicone gasket seal which has worked very well.

The fuel exits the housing at around 40-45 degrees, not the 70-80 as stated in the guide. This is ideal if you use a petrol blend as much hotter and you risk the petrol vaporising and causing running problems.
